Simon Field | Ingot gold, the gilded color just a little compromised at the rim; peaches and cream, pineapple and citrine. A well-judged interplay between acidity and concentration; thereby the tension is maintained and, with it, the request for another glass... | 91
Andrew Jefford | Deep, full, straw-gold. Rich and more generously fruity than many of its peers, with peach, apricot, pineapple, and nectarine in the exuberant 2017 style. Huge fun to sniff. Broad, extravagant, and luxurious on the palate, stretched out like a sunbather on the beach. There isn’t a huge level of detail or intricacy here, but the width and depth are very impressive, and this is likely to offer great value to lovers of unapologetic, unbridled, lay-it-all-on-the-line sweet wine. | 90
